Abstract

The distribution of seabirds was investigated in 24-34 major coastal wetlands in Korea from 2015 to 2019. During the study period, seven orders, 16 families, and 111 species were observed, and the largest number of species (51-89 species) was recorded in 2018. 92,821-265,783 individuals per year were observed with the largest number in 2018. The largest number of species (55-72 species) was observed in the southern sites of Jeollado, and the largest number of individuals (annual average of 62,542 individuals) was found in Chungcheong regions. The largest number of seabird species (68 species) was observed at the Suncheon Bay site in 2016, and the largest number of individuals (95,399 individuals) was observed at Biin and Jangan sites in 2018. In terms of the habitat type of seabirds, at the family level, shorebirds appeared most frequently with an average of 38%, followed by waterfowl, wading birds, seabirds, and raptors. With regard to legally protected species, eight protected marine species, 19 endangered wildlife species (Level I: six species, Level II: 13 species), and twelve natural monument species were observed. Overall, there was a significant difference in the number of species and individuals of seabirds in the Korean coastal wetlands during the research period. This suggests the importance of conducting systematic and continuous seabird surveys and developing a conservation policy considering habitat characteristics.

2015~2019년에 한국의 주요 연안습지 24~34개소를 중심으로 바닷새의 분포 현황을 조사하였다. 조사기간 동안 출현한 바닷새는 총 7목 16과 111종이었고, 연간 출현종은 51~89종으로 2018년에 가장 많았다. 연간 관찰된 개체수는 92,821~265,783개체였으며, 2018년에 가장 많았다. 권역별로는 전라남부권역에서 가장 많은 종 수(55~72종)가 확인되었으며, 가장 많은 개체수(연평균 62,542개체)는 충청권역에서 관찰되었다. 조사지점별로는 2016년에 순천만 조사지점에서 68종으로 가장 많이 출현하였으며, 비인/장안 지역에서 2018년에 95,399개체로 가장 많이 관찰되었다. 서식지 이용 유형별 바닷새 조성비는 해안성조류가 평균 38%로 가장 많이 출현하였으며, 다음으로 헤엄치는 조류, 섭금류, 해양조류, 맹금류 순이었다. 법정보호종은 해양보호생물 8종, 멸종위기 야생동물 19종(I급 6종, II급 13종), 천연기념물 12종이 확인되었다. 주요 연안습지에서 바닷새는 조사시기에 따라 출현종 및 개체수의 차이를 보여 체계적이고 지속적인 실태조사 및 서식지 특성을 고려한 보전 정책 반영이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
